- Alan,
-
- You make some excellent points. We software engineers are now under quite a
- bit of pressure to provide mult-platform solutions. For Pascal 9x that means 2
- things:
-
- (a) Pascal compiler venders on other platforms (IBM especially) MUST be
- involved in such a way with Pascal 9x that they are committed to Pascal 9x as
- their upgrade path. Not only should these people be consulted, their
- commitment should be courted.
- (b) Someone needs to develop MacApp or a MacApp alternative which takes into
- account the multi-platform situation. This looks like a great oppurtunity for
- a new product.
-
- Scott.
